Throughout the 1990s concerns of the Mamanuca Fiji Islands Hotel and Tourism Association (MFIHTA) members in consultation with Coral Cay Conservation (CCC) in 2001 led to a recommendation to the formation of the Mamanuca Coastal Zone Management Group.

As a result, the Mamanuca Environment Society (MES) was formed in 2002 by members of MFIHTA as a non-profit, non-governmental organisation. The Society’s objectives being, an initiative to address environmental issues in the region and specifically work towards the protection and betterment of the region’s marine and terrestrial environment. Recent MES projects include Water Quality Monitoring, Reef Check Surveys, Liquid Waste Management, as well as ongoing education and dialogue with stakeholders at community and commercial levels.More info here…
